Miquel Blázquez Font

Three non-negotiables in how I see and understand things: having fun (I try not to do anything I don’t thoroughly enjoy), working very hard out of passion (never for status, money or fame), and learning through experimentation to grow and become more useful to society every day, but above all to enjoy working. I grew up watching and creating YouTube videos during secondary school (at 14), learned my craft in traditional newsrooms such as Catalunya Ràdio and Cugat Mèdia, experimented with digital media such as Flashscore and Overtime, and I am now learning to grow businesses by focusing on their message and the quality of their communications. I am a journalist, but behind this increasingly evolving role lie strategy, editing, photography and communications management, all to deliver a final product that connects and leads.

Along the way, I launched my social media accounts, where I learned to understand audiences and create content that sets trends. The numbers came, but they were always just numbers: what matters is understanding that, ultimately, they help us compare and identify signals. Today, more than 220,000 users follow me on TikTok, more than 231,000 on X and more than 114,000 on Instagram. They all share a keen interest in sport and, above all, FC Barcelona, a club I follow enthusiastically and one that has allowed me to experiment and grow across many fields and disciplines. While learning to build my own brand, I graduated in Communication from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB). Another of my greatest achievements was writing a book about sport and psychology (two of my great passions) with Penguin Random House, a publisher that became more than a source of support: it became my home for over four months of work, sweat and many tears, both joyful and otherwise.
